He was born at the beginning of this century on May 19, 1910. His father Vinayakrao was in the postal service, his mother's name was Laxmi.

Vinayakrao was drawing a salary of Rs 15 per month. He used to spend Rs 10 on his family and send Rs 5 to his parents. Vinayakrao and his wife had three sons, none of them survived. They prayed to God, had their fourth son, Nathuram..

The rest of his life was very smooth.

He never stole in his childhood, so there was no question of apologising to his father. He never took a vow of celibacy as He was already practising celibacy. He was moving around the refugee camps and helping the destitute with food and clothes. But he did not wander half-naked because the refugees were naked. he never spun yarn, never cleaned his toilet, never observed silence till he was hanged. There was only one common factor in Gandhi's life and his. They were both the cause of each other's death. He wanted to live for his principles and he was prepared to die for his principles.
